Tummy Tuck Cuyahoga County
Even with regular diet and exercise, there are some characteristics of the body that are irreversible, such as loose skin in the midsection and weakened abdominal muscles. For this reason, many women decide to undergo tummy tuck surgery post-pregnancy.

Am I a good candidate for a tummy tuck procedure?
Dr. Vanek performs tummy tuck surgery on patients in the Lake County and Geauga County area's who are in good health and have realistic expectations. If diet and exercise have failed to provide you with the results you want, this body contouring surgery procedure may be performed. Dr. Vanek will remove excess fat and skin, as well as tighten the abdominal muscles while performing this surgery. Abdominoplasty is not intended to help you lose weight; rather, to re-contour the abdomen while creating a slimmer profile. Candidates with minimal sagging skin may be more appropriate for the mini tummy tuck procedure.
Patients who are undergoing gynecologic procedures like tubal ligation, hysterectomy or bladder suspension surgery can safely combine that procedure with a cosmetic tummy tuck. Dr. Vanek will help you find a gynecologist in the Lake Health System who will collaborate on completing these procedures under a single general anesthetic time.
Often, VASER ® liposuction, or “lipoplasty,” is performed in the midsection along with tummy tuck procedures. Combined, liposuction and tummy tuck can help a woman achieve more slender curves, as well as a better-toned abdomen. In addition, some individuals also undergo breast augmentation (“augmentation mammaplasty”) or breast lift surgery (“mastopexy”) to restore sagging breast tissue or loss of volume. When these body contouring procedures are performed together, this is often termed a “Mommy Makeover.”
